When one is engaged in premature optimisation, one does lots of benchmarks, and finds things that seem to speed up nicely, and has many happy nice numbers ... which have nothing to do with the real world use of the system. Meanwhile, the changes made to support the premature optimisations often have other, unforseen (or handwaved away) negative effects.
